has to be vidic doesnt it



somebody needs to tell vidic a game against liverpool lasts 90 mins not 80 or 87

From a 'neural' point of view..I'd say Vidic...

Does it not frustrate you how much/ easily Torres goes down? He has got that Drogba element...we all know how good Torres is on his feet so why he feels the need to go down so often baffles me..gives the defenders an easy ride when he does that..not so easy when he stays on his feet.

Thats whats football has become they feel a touch an they go down they all do it I wish he didnt as he can hold most defenders off hes that strong.

I thought it was ridiculous that the scousers whined about Drogba after the Chelsea-Liverpool game when Torres was throwing himself to the floor all game winning free kicks.

I think you're wrong when you say he makes it easy on defenders by going down. If he's winning the race for the ball then he'll stay on his feet. If he's losing the race he'll be going down and getting the free kick.

Its the way Drogba does it though even his own captain is embarrassed by the way he acts.

I don't think that Torres had a particularly good game and until his goal he hadn't caused any real distress to Nited's defence yet Redknapp asserted afterwards that he'd "terrorised" them which is utter balls....it's the sign of a top player/forward that he gets one chance and sticks it away though so fair do's to him for that.

Thing I don't like about Drogba is the aftermath of the dive. The rolling around until play is stopped, then suddenly he becomes the incredible hulk only moments later.

Spot on.

Vidic looks proper dodgy at the moment. Even with harmless balls forward he still seems hesitant. Time for Evans to get a few games I think.

Welcome to football.

Torres 'played the game', went down at the slightest touch a few times when there was nothing on, thus winning free kicks, came alive when the chance was there, and made rio look a mug, albeit down Vidic's channel.

Mariner wasn't biased, just weak, it was a 'homer' ref performance, the crowd (quite rightly) played their part.

Both centre backs look dodgy. I actually thought Vidic had a decent game, probably his best of the season. He cleared just about everything that came near him. On another day, in another ground he probably wouldn't have got his first yellow. I thought he dealt with the threat pretty easily.
